On the Use of Wind-Wave Spectral Formulas to Estimate Wave EnergySource: Journal of Energy Resources Technology:;1998:;volume( 120 ):;issue: 004::page 314Author:M. E. McCormick

Abstract: It is common practice by wave energy conversion technologists to estimate long-term wave energy potentials at both offshore and coastal sites by using established wind-wave spectral formulas. It is shown that the use of these formulas can lead to both incorrect wave energy resource estimates and improperly designed conversion systems. The formulas are shown to poorly predict modal and peak spectral periods for long-term seas.
